⁵And he had a bronze helmet on his head. He wore a bronze coat of mail weighing five thousand shekels,

⁶And he had armor of bronze on his legs and a javelin of bronze slung between his shoulders.

⁷The shaft of his spear was like a weaver’s beam, and its iron point weighed six hundred shekels. In addition, his shield bearer went before him.

⁸And Goliath stood and shouted to the ranks of Israel, “Why do you come out and array yourselves for battle? Am I not a Philistine, and are you not servants of Saul? Choose one of your men and have him come down against me.

⁹If he is able to fight me and kill me, then we will be your servants. But if I prevail against him and kill him, then you shall be our servants and work for us.”
